World's first 150mph car returns to beach where it broke record
Published: 7/20/2025

Blue Bird, the car that broke the 150mph barrier in 1925, has returned to the historic Pendine Sands in Wales for its 100th anniversary celebration. Sir Malcolm Campbell's grandson, Don Wales, will commemorate the event on the beach where Blue Bird made history. The car, now housed at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu, Hampshire, faced challenges over the years but continues to be a symbol of land-speed record achievements.
